Additional Notes

  • The Porsche 928 (USA) manual transaxle holds 4.5 liters of fluid across both listed configurations, covering model years 1986-1995.
  • A 4.5-liter capacity is relatively large for a manual transmission, which reflects the transaxle layout — a combined transmission and rear axle differential housed in a single unit at the rear of the vehicle.
  • Both the 928 (1986-1992) and the 928 GTS (1991-1995) share an identical 4.5-liter service fill capacity, indicating no volumetric difference between the two configurations despite the GTS designation representing a higher-output variant.
  • The capacity figure listed for both rows represents a service fill, meaning the amount of fluid used during a standard drain-and-refill service rather than a full overhaul where additional passages and cavities may retain or require fluid.
  • Both configurations carry a normal use condition tied to the 4.5-liter capacity, meaning the specification applies under standard operating conditions rather than severe or high-stress duty cycles.
